"You know, when we were kids, we had to go to a theater to see a movie. And then television came in and you had to wait until midnight to see the one you wanted to see. Now, all you've got to do is go to a store and buy it and you can watch it whenever you want!"

"I have wit in my work and a sense of humor, but I do not use irony in any way."

Work

Quote_1.png
John Zorn
"I don't control it at all. It's all up to the musicians in the group. They control it. They make all the cues, and they tell me what they want, and then I act like a mirroring device so that everyone can see what the cues are."

Control

"You can't be idealistic in this world and not be crazy."
